Hello all: I've been running SuSE 8.1 for about 4 months now and I like it pretty well, but now 8.2 is coming out. I've installed a view custom applications ( namea new version of cyrus-imapd from sources ) and of course modified some config file in /etc etc. Will the upgrade install of 8.2 from 8.1 preserve my system or will it mess it up? Should I not do the upgrade method of install and backup my system and plan to restore certain files when 8.2 is installed? -Thanks
